I am a geoscientist who applies geochronology, petrology, and geochemistry to investigate the processes that shape and modify Earth’s lithosphere. I am currently an Assistant Professor in the School of Earth and Sustainability at Northern Arizona University, where I run the LA-ICP-MS laboratory. Prior to NAU, I completed a B.Sc. in Geology at UC Davis, Ph.D. in Earth Science at UC Santa Barbara, and a Presidential Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at Princeton University.
